The Optics Valley Suspended Monorail (光谷空轨), also known as the Optics Valley Photon, is a driverless suspended monorail line located in Wuhan, China. It is the first suspended monorail line in China, opening on September 26, 2023.[2] The line has six stations and a total length of 10.5 kilometers. Gaoxin Dadao station interchanges with Line 11's Guanggu 4th Road station. There are plans for the line to be extended to a second phase with a total length of 26.7 kilometers and 16 stations. The route runs along the 10-kilometer-long Optics Valley Ecological Corridor (光谷生态大走廊), an ecological corridor between 300 and 500 meters wide connecting Jiufengshan mountain in the north to Longquanshan mountain in the south.[3][4] The railway is located in the southeast of Wuhan, in the Donghu New Technology Development Zone, also known as Guanggu or Optics Valley. The line was designed for both commuting and sightseeing.[5]
